    After loosing to Everton, 2nd is now IMO totally beyond us. So its all about 3rd place. Here's my thoughts on the remaining fixtures that Arsenal and Pool have and predictions for each game.

    <ul>
    [*]Liverpool v Arsenal - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal v West Ham - Arsenal win
    [*]Reading v Liverpool - Draw
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Newcastle v Arsenal - Newcastle win
    [*]Man City v Liverpool - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal v Bolton - Arsenal win
    [*]Liverpool v Middlesbrough - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal v Man City - Arsenal win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Tottenham v Arsenal - draw
    [*]Liverpool v Wigan - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal v Fulham - Arsenal win
    [*]Portsmouth v Liverpool - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal v Chelsea - Arsenal win
    [*]Fulham v Liverpool - Liverpool win
    [/list]
    <ul>
    [*]Portsmouth v Arsenal - Arsenal win
    [*]Liverpool v Charlton - Liverpool win
    [/list]

    Looks to me as Liverpool have a slightly easier run in that we do. If I am right that gives the following points
    <ul>
    [*]Arsenal - 19 points
    [*]Liverpool - 22 points
    [/list]
    Meaning the table will finish

    3) Liverpool 76 points
    4) Arsenal 74 points

    I am basing this on current results and form. Bear in mind I have not taken into account the time between games and the fact Liverpool still has 2 games vs PSV and possible more during the season. These will obviously have an effect, but since they cant be predicted I just went purely on both teams having EPL games only left to play.

    what's your thoughts and predictions for the last games to come?

    I think Arsenal will get 3rd place. Liverpool would rather get further in the champions league so they wont be that good in the league.
